EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the 1920s, this print transports us to a legendary location steeped in history. Here, we see a group of people visiting King Alfred's Blowing Stone, situated in the picturesque village of Kingston Lisle near Uffington, Oxfordshire. The stone itself holds great significance as it is believed to have been used by King Alfred the Great during the Battle of Ashdown. In this image, men and women donning their elegant coats and raincoats gather around the ancient stone, captivated by its mythical aura. The visitors are immersed in conversation and exploration as they delve into England's rich past. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the timeless allure of British heritage. The photographer behind this remarkable shot is Bill Brunell, whose keen eye for detail captures every nuance with monochrome brilliance. As part of Essex Six collection housed at the National Motor Museum, this print serves as a testament to Brunell's skillful artistry. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we can't help but feel drawn into an era where legends come alive amidst breathtaking countryside landscapes. It reminds us that travel not only takes us to new places but also allows us to connect with our roots and embrace our cultural heritage.
